Couldn't we use the timestamp of the last source upload instead? That is, whatever code set SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH based on debian/changelog timestamps has to be modified. Instead of using the timestamp of the most recent entry, have it skip over all binNMU entries to find the timestamp of the most recent non-binNMU entry. Setting SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to the binary build date seems strange to me, even if you were to force it to be identical for all binNMU archs. This approach also solves partial binNMU: sometimes there is no point in scheduling a binNMU for all architectures, but only for a particular one. With my approach, the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH value will be the same for these partiaul binNMU's, but with your approach it will differ from the earlier non-binNMU SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH value. /Simon
